Aloha to Laura Griffin and BEYOND LIMITS

22609410

Who doesn't love a story with a Navy SEAL?   Check out Laura Griffin's newest Tracers book, BEYOND LIMITS, available January 27:

An FBI agent and a Navy SEAL race against time in New York Times bestselling author Laura Griffin’s newest Tracers novel. “Griffin delivers the goods!” (Publishers Weekly)

FBI agent Elizabeth LeBlanc is still caught in the aftermath of her last big case when she runs into the one man from her past who is sure to rock her equilibrium even more. Navy SEAL Derek Vaughn is back home from a harrowing rescue mission in which he found evidence of a secret terror cell on US soil. Elizabeth knows he’ll do anything to unravel the plot—including seducing her for information. And despite the risks involved, she’s tempted to let him. Together with the forensics experts at the Delphi Center, Derek and Elizabeth are closing in on the truth, but it may not be fast enough to avert a devastating attack…

Following in the bestselling tradition of the Tracers series, including Exposed, Scorched, and Twisted, Beyond Limits pulls out all the stops with Griffin’s most gripping thriller yet. 


New York Times and USA Today bestselling author LAURA GRIFFIN started her career in journalism before venturing into the world of romantic suspense. She is a two-time RITA Award winner (for the books Scorched and Whisper of Warning) as well as the recipient of the Daphne du Maurier Award (for Untraceable). Laura currently lives in Austin, where she is working on her next book.

I am giving away SEAL swag to one randomly selected commenter.  To enter the giveaway,

My long time readers know I love BATTLESHIP. After Lt Hopper saves the world from an alien invasion, a Navy SEAL invites him to train with the "team" on Coronado Island. Hopper responds, "Too much sleep."  BATTLESHIP was filmed in Hawaii.

  6. LOL, Danielle, I swear the volleyball game is all we ever remember! I grew up on Top Gun so that is my classic, go-to one. I did like Battleship, too. :) Any book or movie with SEAL or military special ops is always a favorite of mine.

  7. I DO love a Seal in a love story...and with intrigue too! I have a few of Laura's Tracer series and she is my go-to author for thrillers. She writes sooo well!!! And my fave war movie of all time was Saving Private Ryan with Tom Hanks. It hasn't been beat yet! Thanks for the interesting question. jdh2690@gmail.com
